Guest guest Posted July 5, 2004 Report Share Posted July 5, 2004 Joyce, These are the entries from the glossary of " The Arthritis Cure " , (Dr. Theo's first book... " Glucosamine: The key substance that determines how many proteoglycan (water-holding) molecules are formed in the cartilage. The greater the amount of glucosamines, the greater the amount of proteoglycans. " " Chondroitin sulfates: Naturally occurring substances that inhibit the enzymes that can degrade cartilage, while helping to attract fluid to the proteoglycan molecules. " It is his contention that the two substances do, indeed complement each other. My Avasoy label indicates 60 mg of Vitamin C; 30 IU of Vitamin E; 2 mg of Manganese; 1500 mg of Glucosamine; and 300 mg of the ASU as mentioned in the earlier post today. It does seem to me that I don't notice an obvious change when I take the stuff...but I do notice that I don't feel as good when I don't take it for a few days. Could be real; could be placebo... but hey, as a child of the '60's, I always say...feel as good as you can, any way you can. All the best... Alan > & Alan -- thanks for the feedback. I see, on Dr Theo's website, that > there is an Avosoy coming in August -- that also contains chondrioton. > Isn't chondroiton the " repair " part of the formula?? of Service.
